Just a quick note on this one. I know you'd recently suggested dropping
this check since it was redundant:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YfGUWLmg82G+l4jU@zn.tnic/

I've dropped the redundant checks from in this version, but with the
additional sanity checks you suggested adding, this function remained
relevant for v9 so we can provide user-readable warnings for "weird"
stuff in the table that doesn't necessarily violate the spec, but also
doesn't seem to make much sense:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YefzQuqrV8kdLr9z@zn.tnic/

But I also agree with your later response here, where sanity-checking
doesn't gain us much since ultimately what really matter is the
resulting values we provide in response to CPUID instructions, which
would be ultimately what gets used for guest owner's attestation flow:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YfR1GNb%2FyzKu4n5+@zn.tnic/

So I agree we should drop the sanity-check in this function since
there's no cases covered here that would actually effect the end
result of those CPUID instructions, nor do any of the checks here
violate the SNP spec...

...except possibly the checks that enforce that the Reserved fields
here are all 0, which we discussed here:

  https://lore.kernel.org/all/YeGhKll2fTcTr2wS@zn.tnic/

I followed up with our firmware team on this to confirm whether our
intended handling and the potential backward-compatibility issues
aligned with the intent of the SNP FW spec, and the guidance I got
on that is that those Reserved/MBZ constraints are meant to apply
to what a hypervisor places in the initial CPUID table input to
SNP_LAUNCH_UPDATE (or what the guest places in the MSG_CPUID_REQ
structure in the guest message version). They are not meant to
cover what the guest should expect to read for these Reserved fields
in the resulting CPUID table: the guest is supposed to ignore them
completely and not enforce any value.

I mentioned the concern you raised about out-of-spec hypervisors
using non-zero for Reserved fields, and potentially breaking future
guests that attempt to make use of them if they ever get re-purposed
for some other functionality, but their take on that is that such a
hypervisor is clearly out-of-spec, and would not be supported. Their
preference would be to update the spec for clarity on this if we
have any better suggested wording, rather than implementing anything
on the guest side that might effect backward-compatibility in the
future. Another possibility is enforcing 0 in the firmware itself.

So given their guidance on the Reserved fields, and your guidance
on not doing the other sanity-checks, my current plan to to drop
snp_check_cpuid_table() completely for v10, but if you have other
thoughts on that just let me know.

Thanks!
